NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – March 31, 2018

CJLO 1690AM Montreal Unleash Free Metal Compilation “Burned In The Oven: Volume 2”

CJLO 1690AM in Montreal is proud to release Burned In The Oven: Volume 2, their second metal and loud rock compilation, now available for free download at cjlo1690am.bandcamp.com.

Volume two features some of the loudest and hard rocking-est tracks they’ve ever recorded at CJLO. Since this year marks their 20th anniversary, they’ve gone back into their vault and picked some of their favorite tracks from loud artists that have come by and recorded in their in-house recording studio, The Oven.

This compilation is as varied as CJLO’s musical taste, both past and present day. There’s something for everyone in here; the thrash metal of Striker, the punk and grime of Gutser, Indian Handcrafts, and Voltang, the weird spastic electro metal of Genghis Tron, the audio landscapes created by Meinyl or Set and Setting, the wall of noise and fury that is Waingro or just the good old fashioned rock laid down by Heart Attack Kids and Double Experience. There are even some “golden oldies” from the likes of The Bled and Fear Before the March of Flames. They even get a bit softer with the punk dudes from The Motorleague.

Track Listing:

1. The Bled – Hotel Coral Essex

2. Voltang – Lunatic Slick

3. Heart Attack Kids – Platonic Love Bomb

4. Indian Handcrafts – Delete Me

5. Striker – Crossroads

6. Waingro – Raleigh

7. Gutser – Encyclopedia Self-Destructica

8. Set and Setting – Acceptance

9. Fear Before the Marchc of Flames – Epic Song

10. Genghis Tron – Endless Teeth

11. Meinyl – Track 11

12. Double Experience – Gambit

13. The Motorleague – North America

Now of course, there are some bands and subgenres missing… specifically yours! If you’re in a band in or coming to the Montreal area that plays metal or hard rock, get in touch. They’re happy to try to have you come in and lay down some tracks. Regardless of your loud leanings, you’re welcome there.

If you want to send them your music to play or want stop by the station, or want more information, feel free to send an email to md-metal@cjlo.com

Burned In The Oven: Volume 1 is still available for download at https://cjlo1690am.bandcamp.com/album/burned-in-the-oven-volume-1

About CJLO:

Celebrating it’s 20th anniversary this year, CJLO was formed in 1998 and is Concordia University’s radio station.

For 15 years, since early 2003, CJLO has been streaming 7 days a week and for 10 years, since 2008, the station began broadcasting on 1690 AM throughout the Montreal area with 1000 watts of power, and we can be heard as far as Ottawa and Burlington, Vermont.

One hundred percent non-profit, and run almost entirely by volunteers, the station is located in the heart of the NDG borough of Montreal. We have over eighty DJs spinning for your listening pleasure. Whether you are interested in rock, hip hop, RPM, punk, metal, jazz, world music, or talk programming, CJLO has something for you.

With their next show around the corner on March 31st supporting Beyond Creation at Maverick’s in Ottawa, the band have teamed up with NoCleanSinging for the premiere of their music video “Sinister”, which is the title track from their upcoming 2018 sophomore album.

The band comments:

“Sinister is a grim, bleak tale of the fate of our world constructed with a vast variety of metal sub genres and influences”

“As the evolution of Ominous Eclipse has progressed, the band have hybridized a seething core of death metal sound with elements of thrash, black metal, and melodic death metal. But if “The Horde” is a sign of what’s to come next, they’re reaching for new levels of monstrous and electrifying destructiveness.” – No Clean Singing

“The crowd was stellar at Mavericks, where each of the four bands were well represented by their fan bases. Opening on the night were Ominous Eclipse, whose chunky, frantic thrash metal din was led by their howling frontman. Largely drawing from their 2015 album End of Days, the four-piece pounded through six songs, tackling tracks like “Pestilence,” Abandoned” and the album’s particularly solid title track. Helping to limber the crowd for the chaos to come, they called for a “wall of death” in the confines of the club and the fans delivered, clearing the centre of the floor before the opposing sides barrelled into one another, bodies flying everywhere.” – Exclaim! (Live Review opening for Kalmah April 2016)

0 ACCURSED SPAWN Unleash A Brutal Dose of “Bhopal ’84” via Decibel Magazine; Signs To PRC Music For 2019 Debut Album “A Virulent Host”

NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – March 29, 2018

For fans of Cannibal Corpse, Decapitated, Suffocation, Beyond Creation, Obscura, Dying Fetus, Quo Vadis

ACCURSED SPAWN Unleash A Brutal Dose of “Bhopal ’84” via Decibel Magazine

Signs To PRC Music For 2019 Debut Album “A Virulent Host”

L-R – Weiyun Lu (Bass), Max Warwick (Vocals), Jay Cross (Drums), Adam Pell (Guitar)

Founded in Ottawa in 2010 with a singular purpose to transform raw aggression into music, ACCURSED SPAWN mixes influences from old and new forms of extreme metal, resulting to date in a renowned energetic live show, and a handful of recorded songs.

Announcing their signing to PRC Music, ACCURSED SPAWN will be unleashing their debut full length “The Virulent Host” next year in 2019. With a unique sound and style that stands apart from the crowd, the full length is the next step in the band’s evolution of musical expression to follows a mix of demos and EPs since 2010.

“We’re incredibly excited to officially call ourselves part of the PRC family! We couldn’t have found a better partner to release The Virulent Host with, and look forward to unleashing this beast upon the world with the help of Rémi and the team at PRC!” says drummer Jay Cross.

“The Virulent Host” is a fiery and passionate take on modern death metal, influenced by thrash and brutal death that stands head and shoulders above many of their contemporaries. The production quality truly stands among the titans of death metal, thanks to Chris Donaldson, guitarist for legendary death metal unit Cryptopsy applying his talents and experience to mix and master the album at The Grid Studios in Montreal, QC. Donaldson has previously worked on records for high profile names such as Cryptopsy, Beyond Creation, Despised Icon, The Agonist, Beneath The Massacre, and Neuraxis. Artwork was done by highly esteemed artist Remy Cooper of Headsplit Design (Origin, Beyond Creation, Psycroptic, Pig Destroyer, Whitechapel, Thy Art Is Murder, Cryptopsy, Suicide Silence, Arch Enemy).

As fans will need to wait till next year for the release of “The Virulent Host”, ACCURSED SPAWN will not let them wait too long to hear the first single off the debut. Partnering up with Decibel Magazine, the band is premiering “Bhopal ’84”, one of nine songs planned to assault fans off the album.

“We want to offer an intense, yet rewarding listening experience for both musicians and non-musicians alike. Fast, dextrous playing coupled with subtly melodic compositions that can be enjoyed by both the trained and untrained ear. Out first single “Bhopal ’84” will give a good deal of insight into what people can expect from this record: it kicks off with blistering guitar and drum work, jumps into a catchy verse, and presents a very slamming bridge near the end of the song, followed by tasty solo work. It has a nice “Suffocation meets Cryptopsy” feel but is still uniquely Accursed Spawn.” adds guitarist Adam Pell.

Set to tour the great Canadian north this coming April (dates listed below) in support of their third full length album “Reanimation” unleashed this past January via Hostile Media, UK groove death metallers BLOODSHOT DAWN are breaking out from being “Shackled” in their new music video.

The band comments:

“The video was filmed and recorded during our January tour by our friend Paul McGuire! This is what you can expect to see at the shows and this song is going to start the pit!

Watch “Shackled” at the following link:

BLOODSHOW DAWN‘s first cross Canada tour will kick off in Quebec City on April 17th and wrap up in Calgary on May 1st. Supporting the band across the country will be Cambridge, ON’s AEPOCH. Canada is also guitarist Morgan Reid’s home country and is a special return home for him. The Canadian shredder joined the band’s line up after previous guitarist Ben Ellis went on to perform with Scar Symmetry. Reid is now part of BLOODSHOT DAWN‘s fresh assault that includes sticksman James Stewart of Vader fame on drums, new bass player Giacomo Gastaldi along with vocalist and guitarist Josh McMorran.

First formed in 2003, BLOODSHOT DAWN have evolved into a technically ferocious extreme metal outfit. Hailed by Terrorizer Magazine as a band that delivers “blistering live shows”, BLOODSHOT DAWN has become a household name in the UK underground along with truly establishing themselves as a heavyweight act amongst their peers and the worldwide metal scene. They have toured across the UK, Japan, India, Ireland, most of Europe plus have supported bands like Fleshgod Apocalypse, Vader, Scar Symmetry, Wintersun, Krisiun, Decapitated and more along with performing on major festivals Bloodstock Open Air (UK), Hammerfest (UK), UK Techfest, Metal Days (Slovenia) and Mav Festival (Italy).

Their latest album “Reanimation” features prominent guests including Jeff Loomis (Arch Enemy, Nevermore), Paul Wardingham, Ken Sorceron (Abigail Williams, The Faceless) and Mendel Bij De Leij (Aborted). The album was mixed and mastered by Per Nilsson from Scar Symmetry while artwork was completed by Chris Kewli & Tomasz Strzalkowski.

A full stream of “Reanimation” can be heard on Bandcamp here plus is available for stream and download on Hostile Media’s online store here, iTunes, Amazon, CD Baby and all other major online retailers.

What started as a backyard party in 2009 with nothing but eleven local metal bands such as Terrifier, Xul and Odinfist to name a few, has grown into a a huge success admired by the Western Canadian Metal scene. 2017 was the ninth year of the festival and was its largest year for music and attendance. Previous years of the festival have seen line ups with Cattle Decapitation, Suffocation, Beyond Creation, Dayglo Abortions, Rivers of Nihil, The Zenith Passage, Anciients, Bison BC, Striker, Crimson Shadows, Holy Grail, Archspire, Cryptopsy, Unleash The Archers, Divinity, Into Eternity, Ninjaspy, Vesperia, XUL, Odinfist, Death Toll Rising, Gomorrah among many others.

What the press is saying:

“In the past, metalheads had to travel to Germany to experience the rush a big festival, such as Wacken Open Air. But local headbangers decided to bring that feeling home with Armstrong Metalfest.” – Vernon Morning Star

“Go Big or Stay at Home: Armstrong has that welcoming feeling for rock show.” – The Valley Voice

“To witness such a gathering of talent is an absolute privilege, and for that fact alone, I will certainly be returning to Armstrong Metal Fest.” – Beatroute BC

“This festival is now going to be my yearly must-go-to event and if you’re a metal head that hasn’t attended, or a curious metal voyeur, do yourself a favour and check it out, you will not regret it.” – Abort Mag

“The Armstrong Metalfest is one such event and has grown from its initial, humble beginnings seven years ago to be a regular mainstay, with its south-central BC location making for a popular summertime destination for fans and bands alike.” Decibel Mag

Named one of the out-of-town music festivals worth the trip by The Vancouver Sun

“For metalheads, this is a great vacation where groups of all sizes can enjoy their favourite musical genre in a fun, energized environment. Not to mention, the camping!” The Permanent Rain Press

INFINITEE “Free” Prog Shredding In New Guitar Playthrough via New Noise Mag

Debut Album “The Possibilities Are Endless” Out April 20th

Few bands’ music has ever lived up to their name as much as Tres Thomas’ superb instrumental project INFINITEE; for theirs is an infinity of sounds, a universe of music waiting to be discovered.

Yet there is no self-indulgence, the song is always served. Combining the cranium crunch of Metallica and the progressive flights of fancy of Mastodon, INFINITEE are a truly special act.

Tres Thomas is also guitarist of Tales Of The Tomb. He formed INFINITEE in 2016. It quickly became its own iconoclastic beast, forging its own musical path. Debut album “The Possibilities Are Endless” is only the starting point, INFINITEE have the potential to become huge. Tres explains “the band has somehow evolved its way into the band it is today.”

Inspired by My Chemical Romance, Dance Gavin Dance, Plini, Modern Day Babylon, The Contortionist, Tres describes INFINITEE’s sound as djenty, heavy, dynamic, melodic and progressive.

Stoked for fans to hear INFINITEE’s debut album, Tres comments:

“It will definitely be different! However, the title track ‘The Possibilities Are Endless’ leaves all sorts of possibilities open…no pun intended! Tracks like ‘Xenocybin’, ‘Lost’ and the title track are more metal and conventional with their instrumentation. Tracks like ‘Robots Vs The Wooden Chairs Part 1 and 2 are more influenced by EDM, which has sparked the interest of people who aren’t really a fan of metal or djent, but appreciate the more electronic elements of music. This is basically a battle of robots (electronic made sounds) and the wooden chairs (guitars, bass, drums) that are wooden and made and played by humans!”

Teaming up with New Noise Mag, INFINITEE are setting their prog shredding “Free” in their new guitar playthrough.

“This song is by favourite and is most fun to play. This song was what made me realize Infinitee needs to be more open and not just one genre. This is the staple/ flag of Infinitee’s writing!” says Tres.

Watch it now at the following link: https://newnoisemagazine.com/infinitee-free-guitar-playthrough/

Fans who will enjoy “The Possibilities Are Endless” when it’s released will also be delighted to know that the possibilities of new music from INFINITEE are also endless as Tres says he has more music to come!

“I have another album ready to record, and I am working on my third. Anything is possible…expect anything!”

INFINITEE’s debut album “The Possibilities Are Endless” is due out April 20, 2018.

Pre-order available on Bandcamp and iTunes.

Track Listing:
1. Xenocybin (3:24)
2, Lost (3:23)
3. Robots vs. The Wooden Chairs Pt.1 (3:39)
4. Robots vs. The Wooden Chairs Pt.2 (5:00)

For fans of Lamb of God, Sepultura, Ektomorf

Metal Injection Premiere BORNBROKEN’s Bludgeoning Brutality In New Video “The Years of Harsh Truths and Little Lies”

New Album “The Years of Harsh Truths and Little Lies” Out May 18th

Launch Album Pre-Order

Hailing from Montreal, QC, BornBroken is aggressive music for critical masses. They are a band that thrives on fury at the injustices of the world we are living in and now is the right time for their righteous rage, it feeds their creative furnace!

Metal lifers; they give their music and fans 100%; their anger is authentic, yet it is not mindless anger, their intentions are for change for the good. A new world is what they wish to build, better than the old edifice that crumbles around us, a world of equality and justice for all!

“Music is our mistress, our life. It has brought us back from the brink of death after leading us there. Playing music with this band has given our days a purpose and our nights a reason. BornBroken is a name we can all relate to, as we struggle to accept the world around us. Even more today as it seems we are set out on a path to fail before we have a chance to learn who we are.” says guitarist Mike Decker.

Following up their well-received 2013 debut album ‘The Healing Powers of Hate’, they return in 2018 with a 40 minute freight-train on “The Years of Harsh Truths and Little Lies”. The new album features a refreshed line up that includes vocalist Pepe Peloquin (Endast), drummer Samuel Santiago (Gorod, First Fragment) along with bassist Red Voizard to join founding members and guitarists Mike Decker and Simon Sivard. The ten track assault is heavier and angrier plus even includes special guest vocals from Slaves On Dope’s Jason Rockman on “Fight”.

Decker explains:

“We felt the need to go 7 string and tune to (Drop G) for this latest batch of songs, it seemed fitting for the way the band was leaning towards. We keep the same writing style, writing what we want, when we want. First writing for ourselves and then molding into more standard song frame, so people can get the hook of the song, and make it a memorable sound to them.”

Teaming up with MetalInjection.net, BORNBROKEN are premiering their bludgeoning brutality in their new music video for the album’s first single and title track.

“BornBroken may be the best metal band you probably haven’t heard of. Those who love hard, heavy, angry metal are in for a treat and may find a new favorite in BornBroken.″ – TheFrontRowReport

“These extreme metallers have done an amazing job of combining death and thrash…” – Yell Magazine

“Working off catchy as fuck, breakdown inflected riffs BornBroken mercilessly pound the listener to pulp. There is absolutely no doubt people leave a BornBroken show with injuries.” – Hellbound

“Marching to the sounds of brutal bass, slamming percussion, high-speed guitar solos and violently powerful vocals, the broken shall rise.” – LouderThanHell

“Many of the hooks and riffs are excellent, they absolutely destroy my speakers, and the bedroom mosh commences.” – MetalStorm

“BornBroken have resurrected the intense metallic sounds of bands the likes of A Life Once Lost, Hatebreed, Nora, and Arise And Ruin that once dominated the North American metal scene. It’s wonderful to hear a band like BornBroken bringing back what some might consider the peak sound of modern metal.” – PureGrainAudio.com

“Pour percer le domaine du groove métal, tu dois avoir de bons… grooves! Et Bornbroken t’en sert dans bouche à grands coups de louche, toutes très pleines ! Groupe émergeant de la scène québécoise, cette troupe de Montréalais replace les pièces de certains puzzles laissées au sol par des groupes comme Pantera,Lamb of God et Hatebreed car en plus d’être métal et groové, on sent une petite corde bien tendue vers le hardcore métallisée…Si je m’entrainais au gym, question d’augmenter le volume de façon exponentielle de mon chest et de mes bras, c’est sur du Bornbroken que je le ferais!” – MusikUniverse

“Musically, BornBroken are a more solid, and extremely heavy, lot. Simon Savard and Mike Decker’s surging, Dimebag Darrell-inspired grooves hit like haymakers throughout, aided by the sort of dry, ultra-punchy production Terry Date used to achieve such brutal majesty with Pantera, Unearth, Deftones and on White Zombie’s Astro Creep: 2000. The sound here is huge – especially for a self-released effort – clear and quite pummeling.” – Metal-Rules

“BornBroken deserves broad attention. They’ve already made a very big impression in their native Montreal, both for their live performances as well as their music in general. I honestly don’t know that much about the Montreal metal scene, but I do know that it is getting bigger and more competitive. For these guys to emerge as a local favorite suggests something of their overall quality. Give this one a spin.” SeaofTranquility

“Ça me manquait d’entendre du bon groove métal et cette formation de Montréal excelle dans ce domaine. Imagine un mélange de Pantera et Lamb Of God avec une voix hardcore à la Hatebreed et ça te donne une bonne idée du style que propose BornBroken.” – Boulevard Brutal

A Heavy Brew of Blackened Stoner Psych
Montreal’s WYKAN Premiere “Wykan (The Shaman Trance) via TheObelisk

Debut EP “Solace” Out April 13th
Featuring Guest Vocals Matt McGachy (Cryptopsy) & Barrie Butler (Eohum)

L-R – Bass : Daniel Paras – Bass, Jeremy Perkins – Vocals and Guitars, Morgan Zwicker – Drums

Founded in 2017 by guitarist/singer Jeremy Perkins (Eohum), Montreal’s trio WYKAN delivers a heavy brew with its touch of black metal, old stoner / psychedelic rock and blues. Blending these genres, the band evokes spirits of heavy riffs and hot amp tubes overridden and pushed to the limits soon to be heard on their debut EP “SOLACE” due out on April 13th.

“After releasing very heavy black metal for 3+ yrs with my band Eohum, I wanted to return to blues and doom oriented music and expression, with atmosphere, blues solos and more feeling. Both Morgan Zwicker (drums) and Daniel Paras (bass) are distinct musicians / vocalists with jazz/blues backgrounds whom had the will to jump on board.” says band founder Jeremy Perkins.

Hitting the jam space and recruiting some special guests Matt McGachy (Cryptopsy) and Barrie Butler (Eohum), WYKAN‘s debut EP “Solace” features three punishing tracks full of atmosphere and mystery where you can hear black metal rage meet the finest components of blues and harsh psych stoner riffs. The theme of the EP follows inspiration of Ethnobotany and magic along with a tribal take on ritual and ceremony. More specifically with the Northern European Tribes known as the Saami from Finland/Norway/Sweden areas of today and their usage of Amanita Muscaria mushroom for Shamanic practices. Overall, the EPs concept is a reminder of the brisk realities of our lives in relation to the spirit world.

Teaming up with TheObelisk.net, WYKAN are premiering their next single “Wykan (The Shamanic Trance)” featuring guest vocals from Eohum‘s Barrie Butler.

Band founder Jeremy Perkins comments:

“Wykan (The Shaman Trance) is the short-story / poetic take on the ceremony of drinking the brew of clarity (Amanita prepared brew) among the shaman’s hut and the trip commencement under influence of the Amanita Muscaria.”

“’Fulìsche’ are the sparks of a fire moving away from the element they were born from, they shine in their own glow and you can watch them for a few instants before they disappear forever in the dark…In the same way mankind’s stories live in the collective memory until they take flight and you have a limited time to look at them and catch their beauty before they’re lost.”
